There are blackberries on the other side of this gate.
I was going to pick them today.
When I go back into this field
it will be almost winter
and the blackberries will be long gone.
It doesn't matter.
There will be blackberries next year
But there might not be cows.

delicious ripe RM blackberries now being frozen to order.
Horrible thought, isn't it? Can't believe it's happening where it is.
Here we go again,
thought are with your neighbours,

It's just awful. The people across the road breed Gloucester Old Spot pigs and managed to get one small order of pork and sausgaes out before the movement ban came in again. At least they have other jobs to sujpoort themselves as well ...
hey, Alice, enlighten this foreigner. What is this movement ban?
Angie, there has been an outbreak of Foot and Mouth in Egham, Surrey. This is so serious that every single farm in England, Scotland and Wales is affected because there are movement bans on all animals. It is a critical time of year for markets, breeding and movement from summer pastures. The ban will last for more than a month and will cause immense financial damage to farmers.
Animals on the affected farms are slaughtered immediately but it is highly contagious. The awful thing is that this outbreak was started at a Government laboratory which had a leaky waste pipe.
We are affected because all access to farmland is closed. But it is a small price to pay.
Wow! That is horrible!
